At Wilkinson Estate Agents we pride ourselves on our professionalism, friendliness and knowledge of the area. Knowing the property market as we do, we keep up to date with the local and national markets and strive to be the best in our field of expertise.
We understand that it is crucial to have the best estate agent by your side as you contemplate the purchase, letting or sale of a property. The fact is, this is one of the biggest transactions of your life that absolutely requires friendly and candid advice and experience, you must have the right team on hand to help liaise and resolve issues as you navigate these types of transactions. When we visit your property we are conscious we are often in your home and are respectful of this. We are courteous and mindful of your expectations. We do the hard work so our customers don’t have to.
Sharing our experience and knowledge of the most relevant and up to date property news with our customers, we enable them to make the right property decisions, and we provide useful guides, a detailed map of the local area and insights into local topics that are of concern to buyers, sellers, landlords and tenants; something that has proven to be very popular based on the high volumes of visitors coming to visit us here at Wilkinson. We keep an ear to the ground and know what developments are in the pipeline. When a new shop, public house or restaurant is coming to Forest Gate we often know about it first.
Forest Gate is a hidden gem that is just buzzing with life and a hive of activity. With most of the property in the area built in the Victorian era Forest Gate has a charm that is unsurpassed east of the Thames. Originally the way in to Epping Forest, a gate was placed to stop cattle roaming into residential areas and Forest Gate was born. Part of the original forest area is still a large green recreation space, protected by law from development, called Wanstead Flats, and is hugely enjoyed by locals for sports, events and picnics alike. A genuine community has built up around good Ofsted rated schools, great coffee shops, local traders markets and events of all kinds such as the annual Forest Gate festival. At the heart of Forest Gates’ commercial area we are actively involved in our community in more ways than one. Around the Christmas period we can be caught donning elves outfits as part of our ongoing sponsorship of local school events. We are genuinely part of this community ourselves, not only are we estate agents but we live here as well and take pride in our area.
With only a short journey to Westfield Shopping Centre in Stratford, and a hop, skip and a jump to reach the 2012 Olympic Park, Forest Gate in Newham is now a highly sought after area in the East End of London. We have fantastic connecting bus routes throughout the area including a night bus service to and from Oxford Circus. A useful Super Cycle highway is a popular new feature throughout Newham for cycling commuters. Transport links to central London are quick with a local mainline train running through the heart of Forest Gate. Stratford and Liverpool Street stations can be reached directly in 4 minutes and 12 minutes respectively. Forest Gate residents are set for an exciting future as we are privileged to see CrossRail coming in 2019. Now is as good a time as any to consider our little corner of London.

Far best estate agent in the area. Unparalleled understanding of the market and extremely good relationships with buyers looking in the area. Whilst marginally more expensive than local peers, this was by far the best investment when selling our home & we wouldn't have been able ...
